Interior trim spring clips
I am in search of the interior trim clips for my 1965 Special Landau. There are at least two different sizes. #1), What is the correct name for these clips? #2), Is there a source that I can get them from?

1. Given that you're describing at least two widths of trim pieces, I'm wagering that you're trying to find the clips for the trim around the edges of the dash cove panels, including the end caps and wide trim across the top of the cove, plus the narrow trim across the bottom.
If you can have some patience, I can find original part numbers/descriptions for those trim clips and post them here later as my time permits.
2. More than likely your best bet will be to contact people who have parted out '64-'66 T-birds. There are several vendors who help support this website and VTCI that you can contact for used clips as they deal in both new and used parts. Use the link below to see a list of new/used parts vendors:
